Well, today has been quite the day, so i figure i will share. I am here in Georgia and Julie has been going to conventions for her work, leaving me and anita here to babysit the kids. I dont think this will be confined to one day, in fact, i have to start with yesterday.
NanDee and Joey have left for Missouri, leaving us in their house 'till sunday. So there are tons of things in the refrigerator that need to be used. Last night me and Anita made breakfast for dinner... well eggs and pancakes at any rate, after discovering that nandee does not stock most of our "creative cooking" ingredients in her house.... So the flour we used was uhh odd. I think that it was the flour that already has baking powder mixed in... but i dont know. so those pancakes were NASTY (plus we made them from a random internet recipe) so we just drowned them in syrup and the kids ate them just fine :D. Later, after getting them to bed UGHHH bedtime is an endless sega in itself. we settled down and watched pride and prejudice... until 3 am.
So this morning i woke up at 7 when allison touched my arm. I jumped majorly and she jumped when i did. that child ate 3 freakin bowls of cereal! then the others emerged and havoc (as always) ensued. they spent hours making me and anita play piglet on gamecube only to have kevin go. "i am tired of this game" and resetting it right when we got to the end. I went outside for a second and when i returned kevin and shannon were trying to haul a cooler full of toys into the living room.... you know, i had all sorts of stories until i started writing this.
here is what i will take from georgia. a fondness for goldfish, m&ms and Dr. pepper. a happier disposition, and 60 hours of babysitting experience.
Here is what i miss in missouri... my garden, my computer, and i would say my friends but none of them are really in missouri right now.
